Polishing plastic lens with Mothers plastic polish.

I use degreaser to remove all the road tar and bugs that are built up on the lens.

This is the stuff that I like to use Mothers plastic polish and the power ball pad. Just install the pad on your drill and that is your best friend.

Here are some before and after shots

This is a good side by side shot.

You can see the haze is gone and the lens is much clearer.
 
thats a pretty good turn out ive been using nuvus plastic polish #2 on my lenses gets the majority of the yellow out but its never 100% perhaps its because im doin it by hand
 
Can u burn the plastic like that if you left the lens in the car?
 
The reason that i toke them out is to save on the clean up. I would just tape off the paint if tyou leave them in. But i don't really understand your question hope that was a good answer.
 
I have the diamondite restorer and enhancer but I haven't had a good set to try them yet.

Great turnaround.
 
Bid difference's in the before and after. Great job!
 
great turnaround...i think that headlights are like wheel wells...if detailed it separates the pro from the novice...
